'A feelgood comedy set in the most unlikely of places' (Guardian). Critically acclaimed Weird Sisters Theatre Company present this uplifting story about friendship, fantasy and freedom. In 1924: Persephone Baker is planning her coming-out ball at the Dorchester when she finds herself abandoned at St Dymphna's Hospital for the Criminally Insane, with only 'unhinged cigar smoking monomaniac transsexual' Dora Kitson to keep her company. Forgotten for 50 years, they create a surreal fantasy life involving Doris Day and a host of epaulette-wearing heroines to escape the drudgery and isolation of their existence.
